David Axelrod Cancels 'Timeless Series' Performance

The highly anticipated performance by legendary proto-beatman David Axelrod -- no relation to President Obama's advisor -- who was scheduled to gig as part of the Timeless Music Series, has been canceled. Axelrod, who seldom performs live, was to have presented some of his classic instrumental tracks of the 1970s. But he's been in ill health for a while now, and word is he's not going to be able to perform.
